A painted portrait of a man with a dark beard and mustache, wearing a light jacket
A head-and-shoulders painting depicts a man, positioned slightly to the right but looking directly forward. The background is a dark, muted brown, almost black, with visible brushstrokes, particularly on the right side, creating a textured appearance. The man's head is slightly tilted to his right. He has a full, dark brown beard and mustache covering his chin and upper lip. His skin tone is light, with subtle hints of pink on his cheeks and nose. His eyes are dark and appear to be looking towards the viewer. His eyebrows are dark and thick, and his dark brown hair recedes slightly at the temples. He wears a light, muted beige or tan jacket with a visible lapel on the left side. Underneath the jacket, a white shirt collar is visible, and a dark tie or cravat is tied at his neck. Broad, visible brushstrokes on his clothing contribute to the painting's overall texture. His shoulders are angled slightly to the right, and his upper body fills the lower half of the canvas.
